Dangerous: could have caused a house fire

Our solar panels were fitted by this company 7 years ago. When they recently stopped working, they sent a man out, who said we needed a whole new system but not to worry it was covered under warranty. On their advice we paid £900 for scaffolding, we were then told it wasn't covered under warranty, and we would have to pay over £7000 for a new system. When presented with the warranty they blocked our phone numbers and ignored emails. We got a different company who informed us that it hadn't been fitted correctly, nothing was screwed down and the rodent netting had been screwed directly into the side of the panels. Their words were " I'm amazed you haven't had a fire". They are putting right the original shoddy workmanship for £500

Reply from Alternative Eco Solutions UK LTD

Hello Mr Loveday,

I am very shocked to be receiving this review, and this is the first our company has been made of the situation, we do not have any clients under the name left on this review, we also have not blocked any customers from our telephone lines nor have we had a email regarding this matter.

I would request a email to be sent to Info@alternativeecosolutions.co.uk, so any issues can be dealt with amicably but this review is outright slander.

Kind regards,
Louie Taylor

5 Star Service

We found Matt extremely knowledgeable and helpful in explaining the process and happy to spend time answering questions. This continued when James and Vince arrived to upgrade our system. A telephone call to confirm their imminent arrival and professionalism undertaking the work. Once we agreed the best position for the battery they kindly moved heavy items in and out and cleaned up after working on the roof. All three a credit to the company.

solar energy equipment change…

The installation went well and professionally, however I waited two weeks after paying the deposit before I rang them for an installation day, the full payment however was taken the next morning,
I was also promised that the panels would be cleaned, which they haven't and someone to come back to help with sorting out a tariff change in keeping with my new equipment and online connection.

Alternative Eco Solutions

After a number of years of companies ceasing trading there was initial scepticism when considering the Company for a maintenance agreement. However, every aspect of dealing with them from initial enquiry to the service check and maintenance work being carried out was excellent. This includes the peace of mind that the Agreement is transferable to a new property owner if required and if within the Agreement period. The owner contacted me after the first service check by the Company which provides additional comfort that they care about their customer base. I would recommend them.

Great Job all round!

The pure professionalism of the electrician & workmate. They arrived at 1900 & left at 2045. They fitted the equipment checked the fuse boxes & chemically cleaned the rooftop solar panels cleaning up any mess before leaving. I have full confidence in their workmanship.

Battery fitting

They guys fitting the battery were very professional. James had to come back out but no fault of the company. Then Steve came and sorted the electric company for us and he had the patience of a saint. Would recommend this company for any solar needs.

James and his team worked wonders.

James and his team worked wonders fitting the PV panels to the roof, only taking one day to finish the job . The whole team were courteous and friendly and took great pains to clean the house and garden even though it was late in the day when they had finished the job. We were very pleased with the results.

The engineers arrived exactly on time…

The engineers arrived exactly on time which was greatly appreciated. They found one minor installation fault which had never been caught before and fixed it. Maintenance and cleaning was carried out, paperwork completed and they finished in record time. They were lovely and chatty as well!

A mixed experience

The engineer who came earlier this week - Ben - was 5 star, and also two of the senior office staff - Claire and Louis - the same. However the two visits for the diagnosis of the problem some weeks earlier by a different member of staff were certainly below par with conflicting information given and an incorrect diagnosis. Also I experienced the attitude of a third senior staff member as unpleasant and somewhat intimidating to say the least.
